Kara B.'s Road to Recovery: From Addiction to Advocacy

My recovery means to me now that I have a chance to live a second life where I'm not reacting from past trauma.
Grab a cup of coffee and settle in for an inspiring conversation on RAW Recovery. In this episode, host Dion Miller chats with Kara Brucato, who opens up about her journey through addiction and recovery. Kara's story starts with a prescription for opioids after the birth of her first child, which spiraled into a battle with crack cocaine. But her story doesn't end there. Kara found her way to a recovery community organization in Michigan that became her lifeline.
She emphasizes the importance of peer support, the power of empathy, and the critical need for housing in the recovery process. Kara also touches on breaking the stigma surrounding addiction and mental health. Her message is clear: recovery is possible, and it often starts with understanding and support from others. This episode is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of community.
